Sgraffitos are mural decorations made on lime and sand mortars, with a wide variety of shapes (flowers, fish, birds, geometric motifs, etc.).
It is a technique that occurs in many places in Galicia, the Iberian Peninsula and even Europe, although in the Ribeira Sacra there is a particularly rich concentration.
Starting Thursday, we will be able to learn more about sgraffito in the Ribeira Sacra through an exhibition of photographs by Mar López Sotelo at the Casa da Cultura ‘Olga Novo’. The exhibition includes several examples present in our municipality.
The inauguration will be this Thursday the 8th at 8:00 pm and Puri Diaz Ferreiro (from the Val do Frade winery in Vilachá) and archaeologist and historian Xurxo Ayán will be present.
